One of the YouTube channels I came across is "The Late Bloomer Show". Kaye Kittrell began gardening only 4 years ago. Through tireless research and lots of ups and downs, she has a successful garden in only 300 square feet. She grows food in both summer and winter that the neighborhood enjoys. She turned her small southern California front yard into a food production oasis. The young kids in the neighborhood are learning so much from Kaye. She shares not only the information she learns as she gardens, but also shares the bounty. She is easy to listen to and her videos aren't long and drawn out. Kaye has been an inspiration to me. I now have a very small garden growing. If I wouldn't have watch her struggle at times and fight and educate herself through it, I may not have tried again. Thank you Kaye, I for one am glad you bloomed late.

Another of my favorite people to watch on YouTube is John Suscovich and his show "Farm Marketing Solutions". John's videos are short, sweet, and packed with useful information. He has touched on so many points that I have made notes on. He talks about gardening and livestock, especially chickens. He explains it from every angle. From dirt to plate, basically. He is a farmer and a business man, that is what I like. I keep my notebook close while watching his channel. I will be using a lot of his suggestions on our farm. I hope to visit his farm one day and see it up close.

The last one of my favorites that I have watched is "Cornell Small Farms". These videos can be long, but are packed with info. They are well produced. This is their description:
Videos featuring small sustainable farmers in the Northeast US, covering topics ranging from marketing and profitability to producing vegetables, fruit, berries, poultry, pigs, sheep, and cheese. Visit www.nebeginningfarmers.org to find more guidance on how to start a farm, including tutorials, publications, FAQs, and online courses for beginning farmers.
